Abstract In recent years, high energy density polymer capacitors have attracted a lot of scientific interest due to their potential applications in advanced power systems and electronic devices. Here, core–shell structured TiO2@SrTiO3@polydamine nanowires (TiO2@SrTiO3@PDA NWs) were synthesized via a combination of surface conversion reaction and in-situ polymerization method, and then incorporated into the poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) matrix. Our results showed that a small amount of TiO2@SrTiO3@PDA NWs can simultaneously enhance the breakdown strength and electric displacement of nanocomposite (NC) films, resulting in improved energy storage capability. The 5 wt% TiO2@SrTiO3@PDA NWs/PVDF NC demonstrates 1.72 times higher maximum discharge energy density compared to pristine PVDF (10.34 J/cm3 at 198 MV/m vs. 6.01 J/cm3 at 170 MV/m). In addition, the NC with 5 wt% TiO2@SrTiO3@PDA NWs also demonstrates an excellent charge–discharge efficiency (69% at 198 MV/m). Enhanced energy storage performance is due to hierarchical interfacial polarization among their multiple interfaces, the large aspect ratio as well as surface modification of the TiO2@SrTiO3 NWs. The results of this study provide guidelines and a foundation for the preparation of the polymer NCs with an outstanding discharge energy density.

Surface-modified BaTiO3 of 230[Formula: see text]nm average grain size were synthesized by coating BaTiO3 particles with 3[Formula: see text]wt.% Al2O3 and 1[Formula: see text]wt.% SiO2. Ceramic films of different thicknesses were prepared via tape casting and laminating processes followed by two-steps sintering method. After sintering, the average grain size of Surface-modified BaTiO3 ceramic slightly increased to 275[Formula: see text]nm, and great enhancement of AC breakdown strength (BDS) from 184[Formula: see text]kV/cm to 665[Formula: see text]kV/cm was obtained as the thickness of ceramic films decreased from 63[Formula: see text][Formula: see text]m to 12[Formula: see text][Formula: see text]m, resulting in improvement of discharge energy density from 1.14[Formula: see text]J/cm3to 4.06[Formula: see text]J/cm3. Because of their low-cost, easily fabrication, lead-free, improved AC BDS and discharge energy density, surface-modified BaTiO3 ceramic films appeared promising for applications in multilayer energy storage capacitors.

The intermittent and inconsistent nature of some renewable energy, such as solar and wind, means the corresponding plants are unable to operate continuously. Thermochemical energy storage (TES) is an essential way to solve this problem. Due to the advantages of cheap price, high energy density, and ease to scaling, CaO-based material is thought as one of the most promising storage mediums for TES. In this paper, TES based on various cycles, such as CaO/CaCO3 cycles, CaO/Ca(OH)2 cycles, and coupling of CaO/Ca(OH)2 and CaO/CaCO3 cycles, were reviewed. The energy storage performances of CaO-based materials, as well as the modification approaches to improve their performance, were critically reviewed. The natural CaO-based materials for CaO/Ca(OH)2 TES experienced the multiple hydration/dehydration cycles tend to suffer from severe sintering which leads to the low activity and structural stability. It is found that higher dehydration temperature, lower initial sample temperature of the hydration reaction, higher vapor pressure in the hydration reactor, and the use of circulating fluidized bed (CFB) reactors all can improve the energy storage performance of CaO-based materials. In addition, the energy storage performance of CaO-based materials for CaO/Ca(OH)2 TES can be effectively improved by the various modification methods. The additions of Al2O3, Na2Si3O7, and nanoparticles of nano-SiO2 can improve the structural stabilities of CaO-based materials, while the addition of LiOH can improve the reactivities of CaO-based materials. This paper is devoted to a critical review on the development on thermochemical energy storage based on CaO-based materials in the recent years.
